Gemma Oliver says she was warned she could have her kids taken off her when she is evicted

Ms Oliver says she has almost cleared her rent debts, which she says built up after leaving abusive relationships at previous properties, but is still being told to leave.

She said: “I have virtually paid off all the rent arrears that I owe, but they still want me to leave the house by November 9 and say it is the anti-social behaviour, despite me promising nothing like this will ever happen again.

“I have nowhere to go and in a conversation with one of the council housing officers, they suggested they would get social services involved and I could lose my children.

“It is devastating. I don’t know what to do next. If I’ve got nowhere else to live then I won’t hand the keys back. They are not going to take my children.”

A Wrexham council spokesman said: “We are unable to comment on individual cases due to the sensitivity of the information.

“We always do our utmost to provide housing for those in need, however, appropriate legal action will be taken if the Licensing Agreement is broken.”
